Re: anyone flying tomorrow?
Eric Smith is doing payout towing at Houser Road in Casa Grande. I'll be up there, and I believe a few of his students will be there as well. We're leaving town around 7:30 AM.
Flying report Sat 14 Nov 09
John Lowery- Davis Chappins, Clayton Abornathy, ,Rafeal,my two tandem clients and I meet at Houser road.
John & Raf pulled Dorthey Miller and I up to 1500 AGL around 10:45 we worked a light thermal for several 360`s- Dorhtey was happy with her birthday tandem! Clay flew with me next for a 1600 foot tow- Rafael and John were doing the driving/ tow teching. Nice job guys thanks!
I took a single place ride around 1pm. John finished setting up- Clay drove and Raf was teching- climbed to 1500 AGl pinned off to gain 3K! Over development drove my decision to leave! flew 5 to 6 mile away to land. The ensuing down pore soaked John and my gear. Nov storms with over development are rare ! Casa Grande sure gets muddy when it rains!
